Re: Aston Villa FC v Birmingham City FC .... Sunday April 23rd 12.pm kick off.

We have a system solely designed for Kodjia. Our one idea is to try and keep it tight and use Kodjia as a single outlet. It appears that we've done nothing in training this week to allow us to play to Hogan's strengths. Football really isn't as difficult as Villa seem to think.

I'm not sure we even cater well for Kodjia, we just depend on his ability to make something out of nothing.

Regardless of what happens with Gabby on the pitch, it demonstrates that Bruce and Villa are still firmly looking backwards. This is not the future.
Gabby's been booked after just three minutes.

Neither team seem to be able to control a football. Villa have had 54% of useless possession.

Indeed, it's a clear sign of a manager who's ran out of ideas and is something that makes me strongly doubt my current (but fast eroding) support for Bruce.

Gabby scores!

The last gasp of Dodo.

It hammers home just how bereft of ideas we are. Bruce to Calderwood "Let's throw Gabby on" .... "Why?" .... "I dunno, but something might happen."

This is where we are right now.

Blues are still playing the more composed football even though they're one nil down.

Ten minutes left!

by **villabromsgrove** Sun Apr 23, 2017 1:45 pm

Gardner on for Adomah, then Hourihane on for Hogan. We may hang on for the win, but I really hate the blatant negativity from Bruce and his backroom staff.

Blues nearly score with Villa packing the box and panicking! 87 minutes gone.
